• Buy Me an Island (1972)

Why do folks abuse me when I don't even know 'em?
Others shout for the money that I know I don't even owe 'em.
It's these and many other things that causes me to cry,
You ain't heard the half of it and neither have I.

Why do old ladies hit me when I help 'em cross the street?
Even my old dog bit me when I offered him things to eat.
Getting sick and tired of life, just can't stand the pace.
Everything I do just bounces back in my face.

I'm gonna buy me an island in the sun,
Stay there 'til my days are done.
Life's gonna be coconut trees and swimmin in the sea for me.
No one's gonna take that from me.

Every time I wash my car it starts to pour with rain,
Wash it for a second time, skies open up all over again.
I'd like to put it up for sale and go to work by bus,
But no one wants to buy it 'cos the engine's bust.
